[lyrics] Tokyo - w-inds.
From '09. I haven't reworked it, but I'll do that eventually. Suffice it to say this translation may not be the best :P
漢字
[I can't stop now×3]
マバタキせず 空、睨んだ。
今もし瞳を閉じれば
認めたくはないモノが 零れ落ちるから。
謙り、愛想笑い……
いつか僕らが嫌ってたオトナになってく
…夢、引き換え
“流されること”に慣れそうだよ
渋滞と喧騒を抜け、僕は走り出してた
此処、TOKYO。夢追って来たことを Never regret。
眠らない街で 孤独 誤魔化して I keep on dreaming
もろ象徴。憧れと挫折とが交差する場所
負けないよ、自分に。
此処、TOKYOに。
Everybody keep on dreaming
But it is not so easy
gonna make a success story.
distance in the world yeah!!
So…but to say goodbye tomorrow
cannot go back to home now
Your wish I wanna get it
馬鹿にされることを怖れ
強がりも着飾った
ショーウインドウ映る僕…どこが不安気で。
親、訛り、海、地平線…
疎ましかったすべてが恋しいけど
帰らない…帰れない
友達も知り合いも増えた
すれ違う日々の中、安心をくれるよ
此処、TOKYO。夢追って来たことを Never regret。
出逢うべき人に逢って、己を知って I keep on dreaming
もろ象徴。楽しさと寂しさが交差する場所
負けないよ、自分に。
此処、TOKYOに。
夢一つ、今日諦めたよ。
でも、まだだ。此処からも星だって見えるんだ
此処、TOKYO。夢追って来たことを Never regret。
入り組んだ路線図にも もう迷わない I keep on dreaming。
もろ象徴。憧れと挫折とが交差する場所
負けないよ、自分に。
此処、TOKYOに。
Everybody keep on dreaming
But it is not so easy
gonna make a success story.
distance in the world yeah!!
So…but to say goodbye tomorrow
cannot go back to home now
Your wish I wanna get it

English Translation
[I can't stop now×3]
The unblinking sky keeps an eye on us
‘coz if you close your eyes right now,
The things you don’t want to admit begin to fall away
Humbling oneself; insincere smiles…
someday, we’ll turn into the same adults that we once said we hated
…in exchange for our dreams
It seems like I’m getting used to forfeiting things
Omitting the traffic and noise, I started to run
This is Tokyo. Never regret coming to chase after your dream
Isolated in this city that doesn’t sleep, I deceive everyone around me. I keep on dreaming
various symbols. A place where aspirations and frustrations intertwine
Don’t lose to yourself
…here in Tokyo.
Everybody keep on dreaming
But it is not so easy
gonna make a success story.
distance in the world yeah!!
So…but to say goodbye tomorrow
cannot go back to home now
Your wish I wanna get it
Scared of being looked down upon and ridiculed,
I bluffed and dressed up
I’m being reflected on the show window…somewhere I feel uneasy.
my parents, my own dialect, the beaches, and the horizon…
all the things I love are so distant
but I won’t return…I can’t return
I made more friends and acquaintances
In these days that just pass by each other, I feel relieved!
This is Tokyo. Never regret coming to chase after your dream
I met the people I was supposed to meet and got to know myself. I keep on dreaming
various symbols. A place where fun and loneliness intertwine
Don’t lose to yourself
…here in Tokyo.
Hey yo (Here in Tokyo)
Everybody keep on dreaming
(I can’t stop now）
But it is started success story
Gonna make a success story
This time is long and dark so....
Today, I abandoned my dream.
And yet, even from here you can still see the stars
This is Tokyo. Never regret coming to chase after your dream
I won’t be perplexed by complicated route maps anymore. I keep on dreaming
various symbols. A place where aspirations and frustrations intertwine
Don’t lose to yourself
…here in Tokyo.
Enjoy!
